π Tender Overview
Scope of Work:
To Build New sustainable facility for advanced manufacturing, R&D in Jafza.
Description:
The project will extend Eaton's research, engineering, and manufacturing capacity and aim to significantly boost Dubai's capabilities in the advanced manufacturing of electrical and electronic components required to deliver safe and efficient power for several industries, including data centres, buildings, and solar energy.
The construction of the facility, covering more than 500,000 square feet, will begin in 2025 and is expected to be completed in 2026. The manufacturing capability will be complemented by a new research and development (R&D) facility to house a state-of-the-art centre dedicated to sustainable manufacturing, power management, machine learning, AI, and other related fields. The project will create approximately 700 jobs, ranging from high-skilled engineering roles to advanced manufacturing positions.
The campus will leverage sustainable technology and demonstrate how commercial and industrial buildings can play an important role in the energy transition. The manufacturing centre will be fully digitally enabled, using automation, analytics, and advanced robotics to enhance production processes, fully embracing Industry 4.0 principles. It will set a benchmark for sustainable buildings and advanced manufacturing in the region. This strategic partnership with Eaton is a significant advancement in developing smart manufacturing facilities in Jafza, directly supporting Dubai's D33 strategy. Once fully operational, the plant is expected to generate a substantial impact on the UAE's economy, contribute towards the transition to sustainable energy and provide valuable opportunities for young Emiratis.
